I have a large zip file and a limited amount of disk space. Can I determine how much space the expanded contents will take without decompressing the file?
I'm using xmonad, and I would like to open a nautilus window to a certain directory, because I like the convenience of browsing inside an encrypted zip file without unzipping it, which nautilus allows.
however, opening nautilus, even with a path argument starts a desktop on the monitor I'm using (There are 8 xmonad monitors) The desktop is inoperative and renders that monitor useless until nautilus is killed.
Is there any way to open just a nautilus window without any desktop starting?
I'm using xmonad, so I can't see the regular Ubuntu menu to get to the tools in the settings and preferences menus. I have to invoke them by name. Does anyone have a list of the names of these tools? (so that they could be started from the command line)
In particular, I need the Network Proxy Settings tool.
I can't use the scroll wheel in Gedit. The scroll up or down events now have the same effect as right clicking.
I'm not sure what happened. I never messed with any settings. This happened while Gedit was open. Restarting Gedit has no effect, rebooting has no effect, plugging in a different mouse has no effect, and it's not a problem in any other application.
